'''Lord Sewell resigns and faces police inquiry after 'snorting cocaine with prostitutes' ''' | |||
Is the headline for the story involved. I fear your claim that I "rewrote" the headline is wrong, and the claim that I misspelled the name is also wrong. I would ask that you note your edit summaries '''Misplaced Pages editors have no business pretending to be headline writers for newspapers they're not employed by''' and '''nor should they introduce spelling errors into people's names...) ''' appear to be simple ad hominem attacks here. | |||
makes the headline absolutely clear -- I would kindly ask you to apologize for your attack on me. Cheers. ] (]) 13:35, 26 July 2015 (UTC) | |||
:Don't misquote me, Collect: I did not use the word "rewrote". And in fact you did misspell this person's name. Please show more care in regard to BLPs. ] (]) 13:41, 26 July 2015 (UTC) | |||
::Then what did you mean by me "pretending" to be the headline writer? And (expletive) - did you actually read the headline spelling of his name on the Telegram web site headline before accusing ME of being the person who misspelled his name? Really? And somehow ''I'' am the person who wrote the web page for The Telegram? Really? You are digging your attack deeper and deeper here. All I ask for is a ''simple apology'' for the edit summaries. ] (]) 16:26, 26 July 2015 (UTC) | |||
:::You know perfectly well that you altered the headline, presenting it differently from the true version appearing on the newspaper's website. I really don't see what you hope to gain by pretending otherwise. As for misspellings, you've now added another one: it's the Telegraph, not the Telegram. ] (]) 17:08, 26 July 2015 (UTC) | |||
::::Wow. My uncle worked for the Telegram-Gazette and I suppose that stuck in my mind as I am not a fan of newspapers with sensational headlines. Before I fixed the headline, it was claimed to be "''title=Lord Sewel resigns after 'snorting cocaine with two prostitutes ''" which I trust you agree was actually ''wrong'' as that was not the headline. Would you have kept the earlier incorrect version of the headline? And do you concede that the misspelling was by the Telegraph? Cheers. ] (]) 18:36, 26 July 2015 (UTC) | |||
(outdent) I'm not sure how or why I was chosen to be the policeman of these edit summaries, which is a nomination I decline; but I will say I am not sure why this article would need to contain a quotation from a newspaper headline. Regards, ] (]) 22:02, 26 July 2015 (UTC) | |||
:I've noticed that Collects sometimes informs you about situations he doesn't like; no idea why he has chosen you for this burden. As for the article: it doesn't contain (as part of the text) a quotation from a newspaper headline; it only contains the newspaper headline in the reference/footnote. The key is, the headline is now given correctly, as opposed to the incorrect version Collect had entered. ] (]) 22:17, 26 July 2015 (UTC) | |||
::I gave the entire first part of the headline ''verbatim'' as being sufficient to identify the source - until then an absolutely ''incorrect'' version was in the cite. And I note you still do not accept that I spelt the name ''precisely as the headline spelt the name'' - and thus I did not make an error on it. Cheers. And by the way, I am not a plural last I checked. ] (]) 02:19, 27 July 2015 (UTC) | |||

On where would you suggest I give my input? I was going to add it to the "Threaded discussion" section but then I would be replicating what was already above, as I would have again gone through and explained each of my contributions. Thanks, ] (]) 14:38, 4 August 2015 (UTC) | |||

Shapps
The source very carefully avoids accusing Shapps of any wrongdoing ... which we ought well follow. The current use makes it quite appear that the living person operated an illegal pyramid scheme. Which is not claimed in the source given. No charges brought, and so no reason to maintain this bit in a BLP IMO. Collect (talk) 23:20, 23 August 2015 (UTC)
